Celtic exacted the perfect revenge on CFR Cluj, architects of their
Champions League downfall, with a victory every bit as comprehensive as the scoreline suggests.
Neil Lennon and his players retain legitimate aspirations of progression from Group E, which they now top. Dan Petrescu, Lennon’s opposite number, missed pre-match media duties after falling ill at a Glasgow hotel. The former
Chelsea defender recovered sufficiently to bark instructions from the bench, even if nothing Petrescu witnessed would have raised his spirits. Celtic were the superior team in every department.
